confidence great playing
Ray's been playing great for us and we have a lot of confidence in him.
backs challenge desperate great playing pull wall win
We have to look at this as a great challenge for us because they're going to be playing pretty desperate hockey. They've got their backs to the wall and they have to win. This would be a big win for us if we're able to pull it off.
beginning effort final goal gold good great tonight tough
From the beginning our goal was to get to the final and play for the gold medal. It's always tough to go all the way, and we have had some good luck. Tonight we had a great effort from 20 guys.
confidence great job lacking missing night playing start struggling sure team
Right now, I think we're playing a team that's struggling and lacking confidence big time, and missing some guys. With the start we got it kind of made them feel like it was going to be a long night and we made sure we didn't let up on anything. We did a great job all night.
good great hopefully run stanley together
It's one of those things where we look at it as a great opportunity. We know we have a very good team. Hopefully we can put it all together and make a run at the Stanley Cup.
cup dream experience great nice since stanley winning won
It was a great experience and it was the first big thing I'd won since juniors. But I dream of winning the Stanley Cup in Ottawa. And that's what I was thinking. It was nice to win at home, but it wasn't the one I want.
anymore easier fighting great guys hard holding momentum neutral spirit stop tougher zone
It's great to see a fighting spirit in us and not quitting. It used to be a lot easier holding guys up in the neutral zone and making it a lot tougher for the other guys to come in to fore check. You can't do that anymore so once you get some momentum it's hard to stop it.
chance great
It's great to have a chance to go out the right way.
enjoy everybody experience fresh great last might older olympic opportunity playoff race start starts tournament
It's a fresh start for him. He doesn't have to think about the playoff race or anything. Everybody starts at zero. It's a great opportunity for us. We're getting older and it might be our last big tournament for our country. I think he's just going to enjoy the Olympic experience and make the most of the opportunity.
couple defense great guys sprung
They sprung a couple of guys once in a while, but we know Dom is there and he's going to make some great saves. Our defense has been overshadowed because we have such a great offense.
great
Hopefully, we can play one more great game.
great head hope periods short shutting starts tournament
I hope not, but I think he is. In a short tournament like that, goaltending is huge. He's one of those goalies who can get in other people's heads. If he starts shutting you down after two periods you start thinking, and he's really great that way. He can get in your head for sure.
calm great looked nervous played
He played great and he looked really calm in there, not nervous at all,
biggest chance game great ready team tonight tough winning
You've got to be ready to play any team in this league, and we wanted to be ready tonight and I think we were in the first period. I think that's the biggest thing for us. If we go out there and give it a great effort, we're a tough team to beat. We've got a great chance of winning every game now, and that should be our mind-set.
